where are the democrats? That's the question Frank Rich asks today. Rich notes:
 Our country has seen more spirited political back-and-forth over the merger of Hewlett-Packard and Compaq and the factual verisimilitude of "A Beautiful Mind" than it has over a $48 billion defense-budget increase (itself larger than the entire defense budget of any other nation) or our uncertain policy for stabilizing Afghanistan so that the victory by Mr. Bush and our armed forces over the Taliban isn't usurped once more by Al-Qaeda-breeding chaos.
No kidding. So if our political "leaders" are simply going to follow Shrub, perhaps you and I need to do some leading? My mom gave me a bumper sticker that says: "If the people lead, the leaders will follow." And as Billy Bragg sings: "If no one out there understands, start your own revolution and cut out the middle man." Which is all well and good; but how do we lead? How do we start our own revolution? Anyone? 8:53:26 AM
